Gauge invariance and the detection of gravitational radiation
arXiv:gr-qc/0511083 · doi:10.1119/1.2165250
Abstract
The detection of gravitational radiation raises some subtle issues having to do with the coordinate invariance of general relativity. This paper explains these issues and their resolution by using an analogy with the Aharonov-Bohm effect of quantum mechanics.
This paper is a pedagogical treatment of the role of coordinate invariance in explanations of how gravitational radiation detectors work
